Raiders take guard in third round

The Raiders took 6-foot-3, 336-pound Mississippi State guard Gabe Jackson with their third-round pick after trading down in the draft.

The Raiders moved down 14 spots before taking Jackson with the 81st overall pick. Oakland also added a fourth-round pick from Miami in the deal, 116th overall.

The Raiders have overhauled their offensive line this offseason, signing tackle Donald Penn and guards Austin Howard and Kevin Boothe. Last year, Oakland started Mike Brisiel, Lucas Nix and then Khalif Barnes at the guard spots. Brisiel was cut last month.
